In Memory

They say that memories are golden,

well maybe that is true.

I never wanted memories,

I only wanted you.


A million times I needed you,

a million times I cried.

If love alone could have saved you,

You never would have died.


In life I love you dearly,

in death I love you still.

In my heart you hold a place,

no one could ever fill.


If tears could build a stairway,

and heartaches make a lane.

I'd walk the path to heaven,

and bring you back again.


Our family chain is broken,

and nothing seems the same.

But as God call us one by one,

the chain will link again.


.


A heart of gold stopped beating

Two shining eyes at rest.

God broke my heart to prove

He only takes the best.

God knows you had to leave me

But you did not go alone.

For part of me went with you,

The day he took you home
